Gorgo

An irresistibly tacky cross between King Kong and The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms. Midsize monster Gorgo is awoken from millennia of slumber and shipped off for exhibit in Battersea Funfair. This prompts its mammoth mummy to come and stomp a number of model-work London monuments in a display of maternal kinship. The final film, more's the pity, to be directed by Lourié, an art director who also perpetrated The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, The Colossus of New York and Behemoth the Sea Monster.
